    Maggie’s crazy bitch!

    Re: crazy bitch! Would have been great if that guy got up in the middle of her rant and kicked her in the snatch! Then I would have been entertained. Agree on the staged comments.

    AZ BLM ?

    Re: AZ BLM ? I work for the BLM in NM. You could call any of the Field Offices you might be headed to and ask for info on places shoot. Most public lands around here are open to shooting but we have a couple areas that are closed to shooting because of high recreation use. Quite a few...

    hmmm..... odd grouping

    Re: hmmm..... odd grouping Just my thoughts.... 5 groups show evidence of vertical stringing, making me think could be putting some inconsistent pressures on the stock and you could be getting some torque on the stock. I see some picking on savage rifles here, but the two I have (243win and...

    My worst day yet of reloading, feel free to share

    Re: My worst day yet of reloading, feel free to share I've been using One Shot for my small stuff (22 hornet, .223, .243) and works good, but for my longer cases, 270 and 280ai, I had some sticking. A friend lent me a lubing pad and some rcbs lube and things went smooth from there. I'm...

    Tripod vs Scope stand

    Re: Tripod vs Scope stand If your on a budget and need to decide between the two form, I'd suggest the tripod. Sure you'll have to position it carefully on the match line to keep it out of your way a bit, but you'll have something you can take to the field for hunting, bird watching, chick...

    Movie Theater Favorite War Movies!

    Re: Favorite War Movies! While we're at it (and I hope no one takes this as a hijack), I saw a war movie when I was kid that stuck in my head, but I can't figure out what it was. Probably a late '70s release, maybe early '80s. Cold war maybe, I just remember soldiers in snow camo advancing...

    Gunsmithing How to Install Flush cups, Pics inside.

    Re: How to Install Flush cups, Pics inside. I'll get the recoil pad off and see, I have a feeling it's going to be thin based on pictures I've seen. Maybe I can put some kind of blockage part of the way up inside the stock and fill it with some resin. Hopefully I don't make mess. I have a...

    Rifle Scopes reticle choice for hunting

    Re: reticle choice for hunting You mentioned the rapid z reticles as an option? Just in case you don't know, (I didn't and I wish I had), Zeiss has a reticle calculator on their web site that you can use to find the best match for your ballistics. I didn't read the info about thier rapid z...

    Rifle Scopes Should I worry about...

    Re: Should I worry about... I'm a firm believer in good warranties, and the notion of crying once when you spend a little more than you wanted to, than spending twice. Just my two cents.

    Rifle Scopes Scope?

    Re: Scope? I do a lot of hunting in NM, everything from wide open country to timber and have pretty much settled on 4.5-14 variable power scopes. For hunting purposes and reasonable range shots, they fit the ticket well. Most have good eye relief and FOV. I've tried 6-20 power scopes and...

    Re: First time bow hunting Antelope in SD...what camo? Kurt's got the right idea. It may sound crazy, but if you could make yourself a cow decoy that two guys can hide behind. One guy can carry it and the other can be ready with his bow behind him. Take it nice and slow and you'd be amazed...
